_full.jpg "SIMPLE SINFUL CHOCOLATE CAKE")
A delicious chocolate cake that I love to make, it’s just combining all ingredients in one bowl, so simple. To serve, cut baked cooled cake into squares and drizzle with rich chocolate sauce.
Ingredients
- Cake:
- 3 (1 oz each) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine
- 1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup boiling water
- Sauce:
- 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate discs or chips
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Directions
- Cake Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease-line with parchment paper and grease again a 9 x 13 inch baking pan. Set aside. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and whisk using low speed of electric mixer to aerate; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter or margarine with the sugars until well blended, using an electric mixer. Add eggs one at a time and then beat in vanilla and melted chocolate. Beat in flour mixture and sour cream, mixing well until batter is smooth. Stir in boiling water. Transfer to prepared baking pan and bake in preheated oven for 40 to 45 (itâs 45 minutes in my oven) or wooden skewer inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Cool in the baking pan for 10 minutes (it didnât happen with the cake I made, the girls were in a âchocolate binge eating mode). Cut into squares, and serve with a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
- Sauce Preparation
- In a microwaveable bowl, zap chocolates and heavy cream for a minute. Stir. Zap again in 30 seconds interval, stirring well, until well combined and chocolate fully melted and creamy.
- Tip: To melt baking chocolate squares, place baking chocolate squares in a liquid measuring cup and zap for 1 minute. Stir briskly. Put back in the microwave for extra 10 to 15 seconds if needed.
